THE WIZARD OF OZ
First Day of Issue: March 23, 1990
First Issue Location: Hollywood, California
The Wizard of Oz easily ranks as the happiest, most
beloved movie ever made. Modern audiences, like their
counterparts of yesteryear, are captivated by the youthful
innocence of Dorothy — immortalized by Judy Garland,
“Over the Rainbow's” timeless message and the Witch of
the West's spine-tingling wickedness. The wonderful
Wicked Witch character, the casting of talents like Gar-
land as Dorothy, Frank Morgan as Oz, Ray Bolger as the
Scarecrow, Bert Lahr as the Cowardly Lion, Jack Haley as
the Tinman, and Margaret Hamilton as the Wicked Witch
of the West, plus the use of dazzling special effects
worked together to make the 1939 production - one of
the first films to use color – a magical and enduring
celebration of innocence and imagination. No wonder
the actors and actresses themselves achieved such im-
mortality for the characters they portrayed.
